updating raspbian for domoticz

Post by stuiow »

Hi all,

Was on RPI b+, moved over to a RPI2.
I used the Domoticz SD card image to move to RPI2, which is still based on Wheezy.

Is there any need to update to Jessie? If I should, how would I do this, apt-get xxxxxx wouldn't do it I assume, that's just for the app's isn't it?

Cheers

Stu

Hi there,

Currently myself dont have to urge to upGRaDe.

apt-get update / install are needed to update packagelist / install package.
apt-get upgrade is used to install newer package of already installed package.

apt-get dist-upgrade is used to upgrade your distro. If i call correctly from 3 to 4 month ago there's an issue with python getting Python 3 instead of Python 2.

However you can backup your current config, stop domoticz, disable start after reboot and upgrade your distro and try.


Grtz,
Stephan

My system is somewhat settled at the moment, so I don't want to go messing things up, but its nice to know what to do should I need to update now, cheers, I wasn't aware of apt-get dist-upgrade.

Thankyou
